| description:
|
Groundwater dependent ecosystems (GDEs) are ecosystems which require access to groundwater on a permanent or intermittent basis to meet all or some of their water requirements so as to maintain their communities of plants and animals, ecological processes and ecosystem services[1]. Ecosystem dependency on groundwater may vary temporally (over time) and spatially (depending on its location in the landscape).
GDEs include aquifers, caves, lakes, palustrine wetlands, lacustrine wetlands, rivers and vegetation. |
